While the wearables market is booming with the likes of watches and fitness trackers, HELIX is taking a step back by turning something you already bring along with you into a wearable accessory — earphones. According to research from PR Newswire, people use earphones for up for four hours per day, with many of us owning three or more pairs.

Ye rocked the controversial jacket with ripped up jeans and his Visvim shoes, which he’s worn a lot as of late.

Barneys has come under fire recently for allegations of racial profiling and Ye himself blasted the luxury store during a Yeezus show rant in New Mexico. “That’s that racial profiling outside Barneys and s—, talking about ‘Did you steal that?’” he screamed about companies discriminating against him.
